I know this concentration on Ellen doesn't appear to help find Margaret Trimble /Quills - but just trying to make sense of the family.

I suspect that tree is badly researched, and should be taken with a large pinch of salt - the census records at least can't be the right Ellen.
As Shirley has said, the age of the one on both census records is way out from 1896.
(Again, where did you get her DOB from - is it from an actual record, or just from someone else's say-so?)

As you have the exact DOB, does that mean you have Ellen's birth cert?
What does it say?
Or have you taken the date from that tree on Ancestry?

Was Margaret Trimble/Quills married to Mr Horan?
What was his first name? [EDIT: for what it's worth, the tree says his name was James, but gives no proof or dates - presumably his name's on the children's Birth certs?]

Why either Trimble or Quills? Do you mean she had been married before, or are there two different Margarets in the running?

The tree shows the census records as posted above by Shirley. When did Ellen marry James Murphy, and when was the son born? Would she have had time to have been married before to Mr Leahy as suggested in the 1911 census?

[EDIT: Oh yes, just noticed the supposed date of 1917 for marriage to James Murphy ]

A public tree on Ancetsry has this record


Ellen Horan

Birth: 1 November 1896 (1 Nov 1896) - Eire (Ireland)
Marriage: 23 Apr 1917
Spouse: James Murphy
F: (Name Unknown)
M. Margaret Trimble

Did she marry in Ireland or in America ?

The marriagee cert should give some details

Have you tried family search site

I believe her name is Margaret Trimble or Quills from Queenstown Ireland, Married to James Murphy also from Queenstown has a son John Murphy in America recently died in 2013. If anyone has any information I would much appreciate your help.
I am a novice at this searching.

Thank you
